| trinode | hey, how would you diagnose an issue wheere shutting down via the gnome menu results in a black screen (and power remaining on) yet issuing the command shutdown -h now from gnome terminal shuts down fine? | 08:55 |
|---|---|---|
| darkxst | trinode what ubuntu are you using? | 08:56 |
| trinode | 15.04 (yesterday's daily) and gnome 3.16 from the gnome 3 staging repos | 08:57 |
| darkxst | sounds like systemd is choking, but not heard of any similar bugs | 08:58 |
| darkxst | if you enable the debug console at boot, you might be able to switch to VT9 to see what is going when it hangs | 08:59 |
| trinode | ooh, how do I do that? kernel param? | 09:00 |
| trinode | and is there a way to write it to a file? (the screen goes black (and backlight off) instantly, I can't seem to switch to any other terminal | 09:01 |
| darkxst | yesm use systemd.debug-shell | 09:02 |
| darkxst | see /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian | 09:03 |
| darkxst | and if you can get to VT9 then probably systemctl list-jobs will tell you what is hanging | 09:06 |
| trinode | I've got me a shell, lets give this a go | 09:08 |
| trinode | nope, instant black screen of stuck | 09:09 |
| darkxst | on boot or shutdown? | 09:11 |
| trinode | shutdown | 09:12 |
| darkxst | ctl+alt+f9 to get to debug shell | 09:12 |
| trinode | I can get to the shell when the system is booted | 09:12 |
| trinode | but the instant I press power off I loose the ability to do anything other than see a black screen | 09:12 |
| trinode | (can't switch VT or anything) | 09:12 |
| trinode | I think the system is pretty much powered off without the powering off | 09:13 |
| trinode | since shutdown -h works | 09:13 |
| darkxst | probably a stuck grab or somthing, can you ssh into the machine? | 09:13 |
| trinode | makes me think it's nothing to do with systemd | 09:13 |
| trinode | more gnome | 09:13 |
| trinode | or permissions of whatever user gnome runs as or something like tha | 09:13 |
| trinode | t | 09:13 |
| trinode | s/gnome/gdm | 09:14 |
| darkxst | a locked up VT may be nothing to do with gdm | 09:14 |
| darkxst | can you ssh into it? | 09:15 |
| trinode | I'll try but I think wireless is gone after leaving gnome | 09:15 |
| darkxst | connect an ethernet cable ;) | 09:15 |
| trinode | gnome's shutdown dialog listed a warning saying other users were connected | 09:17 |
| trinode | one of them being my ssh session | 09:17 |
| trinode | and clicking poweroff disconnected me instantly | 09:18 |
| darkxst | can you ssh in after it hangs? | 09:19 |
| darkxst | if its a gnome bug, pretty much 100% chance you will be able too | 09:20 |
| darkxst | given your session was kicked though, sounds like its hanging quite late in the shutdown | 09:20 |
| trinode | is there a permission / group you have to be in to power a system down? | 09:21 |
| mgedmin | maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Netconsole could be useful to see what's happening during shutdown, if you've got an ethernet cable and another PC in the same subnet? | 09:21 |
| trinode | switching to lightdm fixed it | 09:31 |
| trinode | I actually was trying to test with unity so did apt-get install unity | 09:31 |
| trinode | it switched me to lightdm instead of gdm | 09:32 |
| trinode | but unity wasn't present as an option so I started gnome | 09:32 |
| trinode | and it shutdown fine | 09:32 |
| mgedmin | bisection idea: instead of shutting down from the gnome session try to log out and then shut down from gdm? | 09:36 |
| trinode | from gdm shutdown is instant black screen again | 09:40 |
| trinode | (I say instant because in lightdm and if using gdm but issuing shutdown -r now from the command line we see the gnome foot logo for a second then some of the boot / shutdown progress text | 09:41 |

| allenskd_ | hey guys if someone could confirm, does nautilus-dropbox package nolonger depends on dropbox in 15.04? just tried to install it and nautilus-dropbox wants to remove dropbox :| | 22:30 |
| Dumle29 | Hey there. If I want to add a startup application through gnome tweak tools, the + doesn't work. Is this a known bug? | 22:56 |
| Dumle29 | Only way I've found to do it so far is making a .desktop file myself | 22:56 |
| Jordan_U | Dumle29: I would argue that you should just be asking how to make onedrive-d start automatically when you log in. It provides more background for your end goal, and also doesn't limit answers to those relating to gnome-tweak-tool :) | 22:58 |
| Dumle29 | Jordan_U: Ah true :P But I'm fairly certain i got that working :) Just figured I would go ask here to get the problem solved now that you spent so much time on it over in #ubuntu :) | 22:59 |
| Dumle29 | I think the .desktop file I made will work (haven't restarted yet) | 22:59 |
